MENUEmerging Leaders Council
Emerging Leaders Council seeks to engage and develop the next generation of Rogel leaders
Mission
The mission of the Rogel Emerging Leaders Council (ELC) is to engage and develop the next generation of Rogel Cancer Center leaders. The ELC serves to advocate on behalf of early career Rogel faculty members, to highlight promising new research opportunities, approaches, and technologies likely to be impactful for members, and to lead selected research program-focused as well as center-wide initiatives and activities.
Composition, Selection, and Terms of Service
The ELC is comprised of 15 Rogel Cancer Center members who are within ten years of their initial faculty appointment as assistant professors at the University of Michigan at the time when they assume their appointment to the council. In 2023, we will appoint five additional members to the council, each for a three-year term of service.
A self-nomination process is used to identify potential council members. The materials needed for consideration are a 1-2 page letter of interest and up-to-date NIH bio sketch from interested members. The call for nominations will be made annually to all Rogel Cancer Center Core members roughly one-month in advance of the receipt date for materials. Selection of council members will be made by a committee comprised of selected Rogel senior leaders. Efforts will be made to ensure that the council is diverse and inclusive and is balanced across research areas in terms of scientific focus and approach and Rogel research program appointment, and is welcoming to all without bias in race, color, sex, religion, national origin, and disability.
The council members will select and appoint a chair and two vice-chairs, who will each serve one-year terms. There is the potential for renewal for an additional one-year term, depending on the voting preferences of the council members.
Council Member Roles and Responsibilities
The council chair will participate in selected Rogel Senior Leadership Council meetings as well as the monthly Rogel Executive Committee Meetings. The two vice-chairs will participate in the monthly Rogel Executive Committee Meetings.
The council will meet monthly (more frequently as needed), to identify high priority issues and opportunities of interest and importance to early career Rogel faculty members, as well as items that should be brought to the attention to the Rogel leadership for assistance in developing and implementing program and center-wide initiatives and activities.
Council members will be expected to participate regularly and actively in the full range of Rogel Cancer Center activities, including research program meetings and retreats, seminars and lectures, and education and training and outreach activities.
